Analysis Summary

This looks like a company with a very strong economic engine and a durable moat, as evidenced by the high ROE and ROIC, along with a solid moat score. The debt levels are practically non-existent, which is always comforting, and the valuation is quite reasonable. It's rare to see a business tick so many boxes so cleanly – this is certainly worth a closer look.
